Description We are pleased to introduce to our range this new variety of Damson. Blue Violet lives up to it’s name with beautiful dusky blue fruits which are larger and sweeter than traditional Damsons. Ready for use from early September, the juicy greenish flesh makes wonderful jams, pastries, crumbles and also freezes well. Blue Violet is self fertile, hardy, compact and easy to grow. Crops have been consistently good and the fruits need less sugar than tradiitonal types yet retain the wonerful true Damson flavour that is so treasured by those who know. We currently have this variety available on ‘Pixy’ rootstock which is an easy to manage tree for smaller gardens or containers. Other tree options for this variety will follow in the Autumn.
